The best macaroni salad ever

I constantly try to change and adjust recipes to be healthier (my definition of healthier is less white flour, white sugar, less fat)....but there are some recipes that just can not be adjusted without you losing that perfect taste.  This salad is one of those dishes.  I got this recipe from my Mother in Law and it is a hit every time we serve it.  The only change I made was taking out the black pepper.
This recipe has one unique step it MUST and I mean MUST be made the day before.  Many have gone before and tried to throw it together the day you plan to serve it and believe me it just isn't the same.  TRUST me on this you MUST let this salad sit in the fridge over night!

Ingredients:
1 pound box elbow macaroni
2 medium sized green peppers
1 large or two small tomatoes
6 tablespoons white vinegar
4 heaping tablespoons mayo

Directions:
A few things you need to consider when beginning.  It is necessary to pour the HOT pasta over the chopped tomato and pepper.  Figure out your timing here.  A very efficient person would be able to start the pasta water boiling, begin the chopping process while watching the water for the boil.  Basically multi tasking.  I am the queen of multi tasking BUT when it comes to the home kitchen there are too many unknowns...Mom where's my shirt for work?.....Have you seen my car keys?....What is the dog eating?...well you get the picture.  That being said here is my approach.
Chop the green pepper to the point it is almost pulverized.  Scoop all the pepper bits and the green juice into a large bowl.  Chop the tomato as small as you can and add to the pepper bits. 
Bring you pasta water to a boil and follow the package directions for al dente pasta. Drain the pasta and immediately dump it into the peppers and onions.  Now stir baby stir.  The heat from the pasta will soften the veggies.  Now stir in the mayo and vinegar.  Pop on an airtight lid and stash in the fridge.  Before you server give the salad a stir and determine if you need to add more vinegar or mayo.  Also add salt if needed.
